SAND cAKg0NATEs.

~ IEs
Ed. said, II feel a little better to-day
don't stay with me, go down town if yor
wish to; I'll be all right tomorrow"
George, after a little more persuasion
did go down town, wandering as he went
what had caused Ed. such an attack. He
made a few purchases, looked into several
of the gambling halls and then remem
bered the sample taken to the assay office
The assayer greeted him with a smile, and
remarked as he handed him a certificate,
How do you like that?"
Could it be possible? EOS ounces silver
to the ton. Georges questioning eyes
gazed at the man of retorts and cupels,
who smilingly said:
surprised are you? | thought when
you brought it in you didn't know much
about sand c~arbonates."
George fingered a moment, and then as
fast as his legs could carry him went back
to the %Invincible and Ed. When the Ger
tificate was laid before Benton he read it
slowly, comprehended the value of the
figures. but did not understand Georges
object in laying it before him. "Where's
the claim? ?" he asked.
fright here. The %Inyincible. The stuff
we've been throwing oye the dump. Sand
c~arbonates," George blurted out in de-
tatched sentences.
Benton was forcibly struck with the
facts of the case and said nothing. He
who believed he was a miner and a pros
pector to be taught by a tenderfoot like
George who a few weeks before did not
know the difference between a windlass
and a whim or couldn't tell a chunck OF
galena from iron pyrites, he told himself.
It was a blow to his pride, but he soon
recovered, for George was too much Ella
ted with the discovery to think of assum-
ing any credit to himself. To make the
matter sure, they sacked up some of the
worthless looking stuff, took it over to the
smelter next day and had a mill run of it.
In the course OF several days they got the
returns, which showed a fraction over 200
ounces to the ton. They were rich.

FORTUNE.

The news of the rich strike on FRYE,
Hill caused a new rush to that locality
Not only did prospectors look into the
shaft of the Invincible, but experts exam
ined the property, s%crutinized the ore
made wise remarks about how long il
would last, the size Of the lode, generally
with a tendency to disparagments. But
the boys held on, worked themselves and
employed others to assist them. Several
offers were made them which they re-
fusea, but when a certain mining expert
told that q deed and possession would
bring them a check for one hundred
thousand dollars they hesitated, looked
one at another and said: tits a bargain"
Fifty thousand apiece said George as
they came out of the bank. He was in
high spirits, while Ed, on the contrary,
acted more like a man who had made a
foolish bargain.
Lets go back to the Pacific slope" sug-
gested the joyous George, expecting, as a
matter Of course that Ed. would assent.
NO." slowly replied Ed, "I1l stay here
for a while He didn't speak loudly nor
with much emphasis, but there was a. de-
termination in his tone which George I'M
derstood.
a few days later George started back
for the western shore. He had two drafts
the largest his own, and the smaller one
quite a large sum itself for Eds mother.
If Ed. Benton had been restless and I'M
easy since selling out, he was more so
now since George had gone.
He wandered from saloon to hall, from
street to street, up the hill TO where they
were taking out the rich ore that once had
been his, watched the progress of the new
holster and mill which was being built.
He had money now, didn't owe ny man
a dollar, was regarded as a lucky fellow
and yet he was miserable. Idleness was
him. 1t was bearable during the
day, but when night came he couldn't |
The memory of Kate Owens death |
haunted him; he couldn't sleep. He drank
to keep off the blues, it was no use. Men
wondered at the amount Of whisky he
could stand up under; it seemed impos-
sible to get drunk. One day he drank
much less than usual and came back into
at supper time on horseback. Next
morning the news was, Benton has bought
claim.

HOPES.

Ed. was not easily moved to Georges
plans. In answer to a question he had
said he was bound for Leadville, and
thereby committed himself and his inten-
ton to George.
so am |, Colonel, old boy, and we'N go
together was Georges rejoinder.
From Cheyenne to Denver, Ed. was 81
lent. reserved, almost morose. In Denver
the current talk was Leadville, the mines,
mineral, money, fortunes; and as these
eyer-recurring topics came to their ears
Eds tongue became unloosed and he
talked. George was surprised at the ease
with which Ed. could converse upon
quartz, limestone, granite, spar leads,
lodes and deposits, and as Benton pro-
ceeded he warmed with his subject, spoke
confidently of prospects and mines, out
puts and the fortunes to be made, got him
fulness which rendered him something
like his old self. George was not only
delighted with Benton's enthusiasm, but
partook largely of it, vas confident that
with Ed. IS his partner and companion
fortune awaited them both.
They did not larry long in Denver, nor
were they 10th to leave for the wonderful
camp in the mountains.
The steep and rough stage roads made
some of the passengers tired, The scanty
meals at exhorbitant prices made many of
them loudly complain. The returning
maIcontents made some of them doubtful,
but George and Ed. got neither tired,
displeased nor doubtful, but they
kept on with a hope which sustained
them and turned inconvenience into
pleasures, hardships into frivolous incl
dents.

FRIEND.

Cheyenne was a busy place in those
days, busy in traffic, hurriedly so in dissi-
patton, perhaps the wickedest, busy place
in America.
"a stranger in a strange land unused
Benton to himself as he wandered aim
1essly from one public resort to another,
and while the sentiment of his position
was growing upon him a hand was laid
upon his shoulder and voice said, "hallo
Edr'
The evening shadows had deepened into
night; he could not distintly see the face,
but the voice was familiar.
"Don'tyou know me Celonel?' repeated
the voice. 1t was Smooth George, and
Ed. recognized him. The handshake was
hearty on both sides, for each was really
glad to meet the other. George had just
arrived, and though on his way to Lead
vile had concluded to lay off at Cheyenne
and see the town. He told Ed. that he
was "pretty well hooked up" and proved
it by the exhibition Of a goodly sized roll
of bills and quite a number of twenty dol
lar gold pieces. George was well dressed,
wore 3 good watch and chain, and though
his clothes were a little dusty were only
So much so as to proclaim him a traveller.
Ed. on the contrary, looked just what he
was, or rather what he had done, followed
along miles of dusty road with a string of
mule teams. The dust on his worn gar
ments was not recent. Anyone could see
that there was an accumulation Of dirt
upon him, in his hair, on his hat, wen his
light brown mustache had trace of travel
upon it. He knew this, felt it; and the
sight of Georges money made him more
keenly sensitive of their difference in ap-
pearance. So Ed. with twenty dollars in
his pocket was not the same jolly fellow
whom George had known and admired so
so well in days agone.
"What's come over you, old fellow"
said George as they walked down past the
depot, for his companion saw there was
no brightness in Ed. YEARLY and with
reluctance Benton replied:
"I'm sick, George"
'Sick? we'll lets go to a doctor and get
yourself fixed up was Georges kind
suggestion.
In a lame sort of way Ed. tried to X
plain, Its nothing serious, only-only
don't feel we'll"
Though Ed. wa suffering from no very
definite physical ailment, he was sick,
very sick, sick at heart and the mental dis
ease had preyed upon his body, George
was a quick-witted fellow, and saw at a
glance how the matter stood, knew that
his friend was out Of luck, remembered
him as he once had been, a leader among
his associates. was satisfied that the dusty
worn clothes were not those of Ed. Ben
toms choice, so he tried to be careful of
feelings.

They were in L~eadville, and if the crowd
ed street was any proof of the mans as
s%ertion it certainly must be as he had said.
Elbowing, jostling, %crowding, laughing,
street surged along in opposing pillows
Music mingled with the rafting of faro
checks, the clinking of glasses, the hum
OF voices and the tread of feet. Men
spoke loudly so as to be heard, and the
subjects of conversation were no secrets.

brawny, canvas-suited mar was saying as
they entered one of the biggest saloons.
Eds attention was riveted upon the speak
er's face, for he was determined to know
him again and have a talk with him.
The surging mass did not confine itself
to the street, indoors as well as u the
squeezing, elbowing method prevailed.
Ed. and George became separated in the
crowd, and Ed. soon found himself along

Bigger crowd in Saturday night an

"Whereabouts is your claim?" asked Ed.
without further parley.
"Say, young man, what you given me-"
was the rather threatning reply.
Benton looked sQuarely at him and an
swered, Nothing. l just got in tonight,

r%ejoinder.

"Where?" came the next question.
